RST = RSU+UST
6X-2 = 3X-1+2X+13
6X-3X-2X = -1+13+2
X = 14

angleRST= angle RSU+angleUST
6x-2=3x-1+2x+13
6x-2=5x+12
6x-5x=12+2
x=14

x=14
(3x - 1) + (2x + 13) = 6x -2
5x + 12 = 6x - 2
5x - 5x + 12 = 6x - 5x -2
12 = x -2
12 + 2 = x - 2 + 2
14 = x

3x-1+2x+13=6x-2
5x+12=6x-2
x=14

permit x be the hypotenuse. Then the perimeters of the desirable triangle are 24, x-sixteen and x. x^2 = (x-sixteen)^2+24^2 --- Pythogorean Theorem x^2 = x^2-32x+256 + 576 32x = 832 x=26 (hypotenuse)
